I've always been fascinated by the character of Macbeth since the first time I read and watched the Shakespeare's play in my adolescence. Therefore I thought the best way to celebrate the Shakespeare's 400th death anniversary was playing my favourite lines from the fifth act.

THE MULTIMEDIANIC ARTIST

Alessandro Fantini was born in 1978 in Sangro Valley, Italy. His
creative inclination arose during his early childhood when he began
drawing comics and writing tales influenced by gothic authors like Edgar
Allan Poe and Sheridan le Fanu. Disliking art school teachings, he
learned oil painting techniques by himself and started painting his
first canvases in 1993. During the nineties he developed his own
visionary style blending the surrealist attitude with hyperrealism and
Flemish painting methods. In 2002 he graduated with first class honours
in modern literature with a thesis about the relationship between
Italian culture and the PreRaphaelism.

Since 1998 he wrote,
directed and produced movies and music videos digitally, composing also
their soundtracks and writing lyrics for songs performed by himself. His
short movies "Tiranti Transit" and "The road to Shakti" were
broadcasted in 2006 and 2007 on European Sky Channels. He wrote and
illustrated the book "The Night's Veil"(2006) and the dark-fantasy novel
"Endometria"(2007) both published by Liberodiscrivere and presented at
the International Turin book fair. His self-portrait was published in
2004 inside the Jean Michel Jarre's "Aero" album booklet. His artworks
have been shown in several group exhibitions and solo exhibitions in
Pescara, Turin, at the London Brick Lane Gallery, Dorothy Circus Gallery and Old Pasadena, USA.

In 2008 he released his first art book entitled "The Sinovial Gaze" covering more than a decade of painting activity.In 2009 he directed and animated the music video of the international jazz musician Lorenzo Tucci's hit "The Sky".In 2010 he directed the feature movie "EDOnism" filmed in Tokyo and produced by Lorenzo Fantini.In 2011 he conceived, directed, animated, and edited the music video of the original Lorenzo Tucci's song "Hope".
